Description of the problem | At the time of a routine tire rotation, it was noticed the inside of 3 tires were split. One of these splits was significant enough that the tire technician recommended not driving further. The tread on the tires and outside surface was still in good condition. The technician stated there was almost half the regular tread left. It seems unusual to have splits on three tires at once in the same location on what otherwise would still be good tires. This car has not been involved in any unusual accidents or incidents which would have had a negative impact on tire wear. These are the original tires that came with the car. |
